Hey whats up guys. Im new to the forum and i have had trouble trying to install my bf2:complete collection. Everytime i put the disc into the cpu, nothing happens at all. . The auto-install does not pop up nor does the cpu even show that the disc is in the computer. I also replaced the disc with a new one to see if there was something wrong with the disc but i had the same problems. Is there anyway for me to even be able to play? D:

I have a..:
Hewlett-Packard (HP)
Pavilion
AMD Athlon[tn]XP 2300+
2.20Ghz, 1.00 gb of ram
NVidia Geforce 6800 GS

I also have approximately 290 gb of space left. Could anyone help me with this problem?

i've also tried installing with firewall off but that still does not work. I really want to get into the battlefield. :]

Originally BF2 came on 6(ish) CDs.
However the BF2 Complete Collection is on one DVD....
Does it look like this

If your computer only has a CD drive, then you will not be able to run DVDs.
It is possible to buy external USB drives, check Newegg.com

If you need a non-US site, ask in Tech.

If it says "PC-CD", yes they are seperate cds, but if it says "PC-DVD", it's a dvd.

You'll be much better off buying DVD drive than buying another copy of BF2.  Pretty soon, nothing will come on a CD, and you will NEED the DVD drive.

You can buy an fully featured internal DVD burner for less than it costs for the BF2 Complete collection.  Consult your local teenager if you need help buying a compatible drive.  Or try the tech forums.
